The hotel is in the middle of Interlaken West and Interlaken Ost so it’s very convenient to plan itineraries as there’a a lot of option in terms of transportation. There are variety of restaurants and groceries you can choose from. There is no hassle checking in and out. They serve good selection for breakfast too.

Kdrama Location Hunting 🫶

The room was great and a very good cost saving room rates as compared to other Hotels within that commercial area. The location is walking distance from the Interlaken West and OST Train Stations. It is strategically located in between Train stations. So if you love walking even with luggages with rollers/tires, 600 meters to 700 meters walk to the station would be a lot of fun. The service was also great. Katya and her team are very helpful and friendly. Restaurants, convenient stores COOP, Coffee shops, groceries, pharmacies and many more are very close by. If you are looking for the best bang for your buck, this Hotel is the way to go.

The best bang for your buck! Good Hotel, good price, good service and very friendly and welcoming Hotel Staff.

I stayed at multiple hotels during my stay in Switzerland and this one was a shocker. 
Upon arrival, I was early but to be honest I was early at all the hotels, this one sent me away. 
There was no hand wash in the toilet. 
There was supposed to be a kettle, there was none. The room description stated a second bathroom, none although that was not needed. 
The beds were creaky. The shower door broken and would not close yet I was made to sign a disclaimer to say if I flooded the bathroom I would have to pay a CFR500 fine.  The tiles are falling off. 
Interlaken was a good experience but please don’t go to this hotel. 

Don’t do it!

The hotel is a building built in 1891. It has undergone renovations over time, but still needs to update its standards.
We were only there one night. The room was small, as was the bathroom. Access to the shower was a little frustrating, because the old sliding doors did not slide well. They were supplied with soap and shampoo, there was no hair dryer.
They don't have air conditioning, but in September, we opened the windows and the temperature was fine. The room had a standing fan.
They offer breakfast and it had options and was well cooked. For us it was very good: juices, hot dishes, yogurt, cheese, we had a good breakfast.
The best thing about the hotel, the location and the staff who assisted us that day.
You can walk the distance between the station and the hotel, more or less 7 minutes, and around you find shops, markets, restaurants, internal bus routes.
We were attended that day by Lucía, who received us with great enthusiasm and warmth, she recommended how to go to the places and the beautiful parts of the lake, which buses to take, and gave us some passes to take free public transportation. We feel very well cared for.
We were also assisted by a guy who explained to us how to enter the hotel after 9:30 when the reception closes. He was also very attentive and friendly.

Nice location and staff

Read all of the reviews.   
You pay in advance
There bugs on the floor, so much so that you could hear them scurry on the well appointed pergo floor.  We had to leave nothing was done to remediate this.   The office closed at 9 pm no place for key drop off.  I saw where 1 couple lost their money for 4 days.  You are better off going on to Grindewald or another city.

READ ALL reviews.   Trip advisor is dependent upon reviews only unlike Michelin or BAA

I've traveled across six continents and stayed in over 200 hotels of varying prices. Unfortunately, this has been one of the most disappointing experiences I've encountered. The lack of professionalism and minimal services, combined with exorbitant prices, made this stay quite unpleasant.

Positive Aspects:

The only positive aspect is its location.

Negative Aspects:

-Despite booking and paying for a three-person apartment, we were given a double room, even though we were a group of three

-The room was incredibly small and came with a steep price tag of 260+ euros for one night. In reality, it's more in line with a 50 euro room at best.

-Upon returning to the hotel at 23:00 after dinner, we found the main door locked with no information on how to enter. Our attempts to reach the emergency room number went unanswered, and we ended up waiting for over an hour with a child. Despite seeking help from people on the street and even calling the police, it was only after several attempts that the police (118) managed to unlock the main entrance.

Additionally, I tried reaching out to booking.com's emergency number, but even they couldn't establish contact with the property's so-called emergency number.

-The toilet and bathroom were incredibly tiny.

-I strongly advise against staying at this deceptive hotel. Opt for a hostel instead. This establishment is not worth visiting and should not exist.

Scam hotel, Do not book here

Never book this hotel and save yourself from many problems! Pathetic management of this hotel! Yesterday our client - Mr Ashutosh Narayan went to this hotel for checkin with prepaid voucher and hotel front office staff told them that due to overbooking, they have shifted them to another hotel - Apart hotel Krone, when clients reached Apart hotel Krone, their front office told guest they have to pay CHF 529 to stay in this hotel, guest told that they hv already paid to Harder Minerva so Aprat hotel should take the payments from Harder Minerva, but Harder Minerva has denied paying to the new hotel and told guest they they will refund the guest, the payments they have made for the booking with them and guest can directly pay to the new hotel - Apart Hotel Krone ( the cost for the new hotel is much higher then the cost guest has paid to Harder Minerva in 3-4 months advance booking). The travelers have never faced a cheating like this from hotels and middle of the night he was stuck with his family and luggage so he has to accept this arrangement and had paid CHF 529 to Apart Hotel Krone. Please don't book hotel Harder Minerva - as they can throw you out anytime if they get a booking at higher cost than yours. We are going to file this complaint with Swiss tourism as well. 

Pathetic management of this hotel

The absolute worst hotel I've ever visited.. None of the photos are of the current state of the hotel and it shows a non truthful version of the hotel 

No real lobby/reception, no place to sit during the day, no personel during the day to assist you or anything, and no way of getting something to drink or anything 

Breakfast was a joke, with just a few options, such as toast, cereal, and eggs, they don't refill when empty and you can't toast your bread without the power being cut off.

The rooms are small and dark, and the bathroom looks like something from the 60's with mold in the corners. 

Theres no parking and public parking is very expensive.

My main problem was the lack of breakfast, as they charge you a high price for low quality and lack of options, and then the lack of staff to help you during the day.

It could just as easy be a cheap hostel with no service, and the price should be 1/3 of what is is, så stay clear and book a hotel close by for a bit more, but with the service you expect.

Just stay away

The Hotel has the best location as you can find near every cafes,resto,shopping boutiques & supermarkets.Just a walk away from the Casino,Harder Klum & Paragliding.Roaming around was very easy reaching the interlaken west train station.Another positive thing is their staff named Karim as he is very approachable & courteous,always ready to be of help.

BEST HOTEL LOCATION IN INTERLAKEN

Small hotel, renovated old building, near lake and city center. Rooms and lobby are not as good as photos but comfortable. Room service is average. The Staff are polite and friendly. Breakfast is good. I had pleasant time there. Restaurant was next to hotel with traditional atmosphere .
